Brother Philippe's Geese

Artist: Pierre Hubert Subleyras (French, 1699–1749)

Date: c. 1745

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Massachusetts, United States

Description

This painting takes its subject from a fable recounted by the 17th‑century poet Jean de la Fontaine. Philippe takes his son into the marketplace for the first time, where the sight of a beautifully dressed young woman arouses the youth’s curiosity. When his father sarcastically explains that the women are a type of bird called “geese,” the son delightedly replies that they should bring one home to fatten it up. One of these “geese,” dressed in white, has been identified as a portrait of Virginia Parker Hunt, the English wife of the French marine painter Claude Joseph Vernet.

"Brother Philippe's Geese" is a moral tale popularized by Jean de La Fontaine, originating from Boccaccio's Decameron. It tells of a hermit who raises his son in total isolation to avoid temptation, but when the son sees women for the first time, he desires them, calling them "geese"

How do I present myself to be more mysterious? I have a very bad habit of oversharing and I KNOW ITS BAD and I have been working on it but tips to quit it would be really helpful. But how do you achieve that aura?

Knowing what to say and what not to.

Edit: please don’t get caught up in trying to be mysterious. It’s so boring trying to be a persona you’re not and you’re just going to feel shitty about yourself. What happens in Wattpad stories doesn’t necessarily equate to real life. Whilst I do agree with setting boundaries and not over sharing, don’t try to be the whole “femme fatale dark mysterious vibe” and remove the personality you’re naturally born with.

Here’s a brief plan I made for you - obviously you don’t have to stick fully to it, but it gives you an idea on where to draw the line. Depending on the culture you’re surrounded by, you might have to make a few changes here and there.

Excuse my atrocious handwriting, writing on the iPad is a task and half.

How the chart works:

New people = stick to the blue circle

Acquaintances = blue + green

Friends = blue + green + purple

Inner circle = blue + green + purple + pink

Definitions:

New people - people you’ve just met, you don’t know them at all

Acquaintances - classmates, colleagues you’ve only ever said hi-hello to, social media mutuals

Friends - people you like and enjoy spending time with, but are not particularly close to, and you wouldn’t share things happening in your life on a day to day basis

Inner circle - people you really do give an F about, and are pretty much family to you
